WHO ARE YOU?

background : 
in the heart of japan, nakamura yuna's childhood was adorned with the delicate echoes of ballet, a legacy gracefully passed down from her grandmother to her mother. in the serene snapshots displayed in the frames that adorned her room, the ethereal dance of ballerinas was frozen in time—a family tradition, a testament to the poetic artistry that had woven through generations. yuna, however, felt the pull of a different rhythm within her soul.

from a tender age, yuna embraced the world of dance. her nimble feet found solace not in the classic pirouettes of ballet but in the expressive movements of modern dance. the spirited cadence of contemporary choreography became the canvas upon which yuna painted her dreams. as a young dancer, she twirled in the shadows of her family's legacy, carving her own path in the realm of movement and expression.

yearning for a broader stage to showcase her passion, yuna embarked on a journey to korea, a land pulsating with the vibrant energy of the entertainment industry. four years ago, she arrived on korean shores, carrying the dreams of a dancer hungry for recognition. the doors of a prestigious dance academy swung open, offering her a haven to hone her skills and kindred spirits who shared her love for dance.

within the academy's hallowed halls, yuna's devotion earned her a coveted spot in its dance crew. yet, the stage proved a merciless arbiter of talent, and the reality of her prowess set in. yuna found herself trailing behind, her dream slipping away as she lingered at the periphery of the dance world she so desperately wished to inhabit. in time, the once-dazzling spotlight faded, and yuna, outshone by others, was replaced in the dance crew.

the sting of rejection echoed through her spirit, prompting yuna to retreat from the spotlight that once embraced her. she closed the door on her aspirations, distancing herself from the rhythmic heartbeat that had fueled her existence. her room, adorned with the remnants of her family's balletic heritage, became a silent witness to her silent surrender.

it was at the nadir of her journey, where the ashes of her dreams lay scattered, that fate intervened. chimera entertainment, the arbiter of destinies, saw beyond yuna's self-imposed exile. in the quietude of her retreat, they recognized the ember of untamed talent waiting to be reignited. a chance encounter, a whispered promise, and yuna found herself at the crossroads of redemption—a second act awaiting her on the grand stage. the legacy of her family's dance, once dimmed, was about to be reborn, and yuna, with hesitant but resolute steps, was poised to reclaim the spotlight she thought she had lost forever.

personality: -

in the hallowed halls of the entertainment industry, nakamura yuna stood as an unyielding pillar of perfection. to her peers, she was the epitome of responsibility, a figure revered for her unwavering dedication to her craft. Among the trainees, especially the wide-eyed juniors, she carried the weighty title of 'yuna-sunbae,' a moniker spoken with a respectful hush. tet, behind the stoic facade, yuna cradled a heart that beat with kindness and care, a sanctuary reserved for those fortunate enough to be close to her.

her demeanor, seemingly cold and skeptical at first glance, belied the warmth that emanated from the depths of her soul. yuna's kindness was a quiet force, a balm to the aspirations of those around her. dependable as the dawn, she became the anchor upon which her peers could rely, a beacon of strength in an industry known for its tumultuous tides.

the fame that swirled around her, like a tempest of accolades and admiration, did not escape yuna's orbit. fans, enchanted by her beauty, tall stature, and impeccable body shape, hailed her as an idol both on and off the stage. with grace that transcended physicality, yuna navigated the murky waters of celebrity, her mature and level-headed demeanor earning her a role as the group's strategist in the realm of social media promotion.

however, beneath the veneer of perfection, yuna grappled with the pressures of her own popularity. the ascent to stardom exacted a toll on her dance skills, casting a shadow on the once-lustrous path she tread. the applause echoed, but the essence of her craft began to wane. that was the reason why she was displaced from her previous dance crew. she brought fame but she drown herself.

yet, beyond the polished exterior and the serious facade, yuna harbored unexpected quirks. in the mundane moments, she revealed a playful spirit, an almost childlike innocence that surfaced when least expected. a near-indulgence in a plastic chocolate, a testament to her momentary lapse into the whimsy of life.

but even the seemingly unshakeable yuna had her vulnerabilities. in the cloak of night, shadows whispered secrets, and the haunted-house monsters invoked a shiver down her spine. the fear of the dark, a clandestine admission to those who knew her beyond the stage, painted her as a mosaic of contradictions—a dance between strength and fragility, seriousness and playfulness, perfection and vulnerability. in the spotlight, yuna was a celestial presence, but in the quiet moments, she was a tapestry of the human experience, beautifully flawed and captivatingly real.

relationships: 

— moon haseul — groupmate — 18 —8/10
haseul's obliviousness and the need for direct communication might, at times, test yuna's patience, but yuna approaches it with a calm understanding. instead of frustration, there's a sense of protectiveness that yuna extends toward haseul. yuna becomes haseul's guide through the intricate dance of social cues, translating the unspoken language into a comprehensible form for her. haseul's penchant for distraction and slow understanding might initially clash with yuna's disciplined nature, but over time, a symbiotic relationship develops. yuna takes on the role of both mentor and friend, helping haseul navigate the complexities of the idol industry. yuna's dependable nature aligns perfectly with haseul's need for stability, creating a harmony that allows both of them to shine in their own ways. despite haseul's impulsive and competitive nature, yuna serves as a grounding force, offering a steadying hand when needed. yuna's level-headedness complements haseul's occasional whims, creating a dynamic that allows for both seriousness and lightheartedness within the group. in the chaotic world of the group, yuna and haseul find a unique synergy. yuna, the responsible and respected figure, finds unexpected joy in haseul's playful and childlike antics.
